Forster's Tern Shaking Off a Miss

[Chris Calohan]

One of my better birding catches for this year.

[Jens Peermann]

Great capture and, yeah, they really like doing that.

[Chris Calohan]

Thanks, Jens. Few people (except birders) realize what a difficult shot these guys make. This will always be more of a Landscape site than a Nature site but I'll keep tossing in some birds for good luck to the Nature side :-)

[Paulo Bizarro]

Nice.

I can see why you are pleased with your efforts. Well done! I don't have the patience for this type of photography, but I appreciate other photographers efforts.

[Chris Calohan]

Patience is not one of my forte's either but these birds, like Black Skimmers and many Flycatchers fly patterns. Once you get into their pattern, you can cut the patience factor in half...still, not at all an easy shot.
